Preclinical in vivo research of magnesium-based implants for fracture treatment: A systematic review of animal model selection and study design

Background: Degradable magnesium implants are promising for clinical fracture treatment, providing less stress-shielding mechanical support and superior bone-strengthening benefits to traditional materials. The quality of preclinical research is essential for developing Mg implants; however, there a...
